Uzanip Kanlica'nin orta yerinde bir tasa
lying down a stone in the midst of Kanlıca
Guzumun yasini yuzudururum Hisar'a doru
i make my tears pour to the citadel (Rumelia or Anatiolian citadel)
Yapacak hic birsey yok
there is nothing to do
Gitmek istedigi gitti
he wanted to leave and left
Hem anliyorum hem cok aci
both I und and it s so painful
Tek tarafli bitti
it was finished by one side

Bir lodos lazim simdi bana
i need Lodos now
Bir kurek bir kayak
a paddle and a boat
Zulada birkac sise yakut
some bottles of ruby vine re hidden in a safe place
Yer guk kirmizi
sky and ground re red
Soverim gelmisine gecmisine ayipsa ayip
I swear all the past, if it is a shame
Duser ustume aksamdan kalma sabah yildizi
Let the morning star left since evening fall down on me

Ah Istanbul Istanbul olali
Ah, since Istanbul is Istanbul
Hic gormedi bende keder
it has never seen such suffering
Geberiyorum askimdan
i m dying from my love
Kalmadi bende gururdan eser
no pride left in me anymore

Ne aci ne aci insan kendine ne kadar yenik
so painful, so painful is the thing how much a human being is defeated by itself
Bulunmadi ihanetin ilaci yurek koca bir kara delik
the cure from betrayal wasn't found, the black hole is instead of the heart
Yapacak hic birsey yok gonul bu sevdi
there is nothing to do. That s the heart and it loved
Yeni bir ten yeni bir heyecan bilirim istelik
a new skin some new excitement moreover i know
